Gavin Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 That's in Oregon, and the bass are non-native. It's their river, and they can manage it how they want. A wild Chinook (King) Salmon is a pretty special and endangered fish, and if killing non-native smallmouth bass helps them out, so be it. Huntingducks117, nomolites, tjm and 1 other 4
Johnsfolly Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 I agree with @Gavin that as a non-native and potentially harmful one to the native species gig them all if needed. I don't see them any differently than I do lionfish. tjm 1
MOPanfisher Posted July 7, 2022 Posted July 7, 2022 I was reading a similar article from I think Colorado? About invasive smallmouth bass. Hey they are trying to a special status species from a non protected one. Heck they can probably get special federal funding for it.

Clean them out….oh you stock them in there??? Oh okay lol
